The latest season of Black-ish airs every Tuesday on ABC at 9.30pm ET/PT or 8.30pm CT from January 4.

If you don’t have cable though, it’ll be added to ABC’s catch-up service the next day. And, if you're prepared to wait, you can watch for free one week after it airs no log-in required!

If you’ve cut the cord, however, then select over-the-top streaming services can also provide access to ABC programming live or on-demand.

How to watch Black-ish season 8 without cable

Of the many options, we recommend FuboTV for fans of Black-ish, as it's got the most varied selection of national networks, including ABC - a channel some of its rivals lack.

It's a great value cable replacement, with Fubo's entry-level Starter plan comprising over 100 channels for $64.99 a month - after you’ve enjoyed its FREE 7-day FuboTV trial, of course. 

You can also watch Black-ish online with a Hulu account. If you opt for the Hulu with Live TV package, you can watch it live as it's broadcast. Alternatively, watch the next day with a standard Hulu plan. Both offer a Hulu free trial, duration dependent on which one you go for.

Outside of the US? Watch ABC and Black-ish season 8 just like you would at home with the help of a quality VPN.

Canadian viewers can watch the new season of Black-ish at the same time as their American cousins, though at present only with a cable subscription.

Black-ish season 8 will air on CityTV from Tuesday, January 4, at 9.30pm ET / PT. 

Although some content can be streamed free of charge, and without the need for login details, chances are you’ll have to enter your TV provider credentials to watch new Black-ish live online or on-demand. Content can be accessed either through your web browser or the CityTV Now app for iOS and Android devices.

Can't watch CityTV as usual due to pesky geo-blocking restriction? Watch just like you would at home by using a VPN to magically reappear in Canada and gain access to all the content you would at home.

It's been a tough period for fans of the show in the UK, with Black-ish having disappeared of the airways after E4 stopped showing it. All that changed with the launch of Star on Disney Plus, with the streaming service making available all previous seasons up to 7 available on demand towards the end of 2021.

That's the good news! The bad news is there isn't yet a confirmed date for when season 8 will be available to watch in the UK.

In addition to being the exclusive UK home of Black-ish, Disney Plus also gives you access to Disney’s huge back catalog, plus Fox’s and Pixar's as well.

A Disney Plus subscription will also allow you to stream the entire Marvel Comic Universe canon, plus everything Star Wars - including The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett - all for the Disney Plus price of just £7.99 a month.

Fans of smart, funny TV in the Antipodes have equally been left stranded. Season 8 is unavailable to stream here too, at least for the time being, with Season 7 only just nearing the end of its run on Network 7.

Whether you're abroad or an expat in Australia, you can connect to your VoD service back home. Just download a piece of software called a VPN and stream Blackish season 8 online from anywhere.
